Some people may think people would think that that would make the sparrows OP, but it wouldn't. When you are on a sparrow you lose a lot of armor and can jump or evade very well. Also sidearms are arguably the worst secondary. This change would add a small niche to sidearms, which is what they are about, right? Not doing immense amounts of damage like a sniper or shotgun, easier to use than a fusion rifle, and a weapon that you switch to when you have nothing else to use. Also Sidearms' ranges are really bad, so you would have to get pretty close in order to use them. (Personally I think sidearms total ammo capacity should be buffed too but it's just me.) Imagine the new possibilities, a bossfight where you are not able to touch the ground without dying in most spots in an area where you are getting chased by a giant ogre/fallen arkon/minotuar only damageable while you are on a sparrow*. Trolling in the cruicible, sparrows in combined arms would actually have some use instead of fast-travel. It would add a new fun factor to the game. Maybe in destiny 2 we can get some armor levels as well as speed and durabillity to sparrows or get some actual use out of them. (*for the people that actually wondered "what if the person didn't have a sidearm?" then there would be a relic spawning in the strike as a sidearm during bossfight. Just in case bungie maybe sorta wanted to implement this strike/raid fight idea.......? :) )
